Information Sources
Retirements are announced in the Police & Fire Retirement
System board meeting minutes, but FAC (final average compensation), multiplier and pension are
not provided. Early on, I used the retiree's pension
calculation sheet, which I obtained with a FOIA request at a
cost of $5 each. Where retiree name is
blue, you can
click it to see the pension calculation sheet.
However, you won't see any more of these
pension calculation sheets, or ever again find out a public
employee's pension amount. Why? Read
this. Minutes for board meetings since 2010 can be
found
here. Base pay comes from a
document provided to the Lansing State Journal and me in
the fall of 2017 in response to a FOIA request.
Firefighters who
actually go out on runs, as opposed to administrators, are
considered members of the fire suppression unit. They work
strange hours - not the normal 40 hours a week.
I wrote about this in 2012,
and concluded that annual salary could be calculated from
hourly pay rate
by multiplying by 2799.94 (53.845 hours per week times 52
weeks per year). I've since found that matches exactly the
base pay. 2016 pay rates can be found
here. |

FD = from deferred; left some time ago, but
finally reached age 55, when could retire with 10 years of
service. |
|
DD = duty disability; pension is
2/3 of FAC until age 55, then it is recomputed. |
|
ND = non-duty disability; must have 10 years of service to be eligible. Pension is
computed the same as for regular retirement (service x FAC x 3.2%) with a maximum of 2/3 of compensation of
either a full paid patrolman or firefighter at date of
retirement. |
|
DTH - duty death |
|
W = withdrawn |
|
Conv = conversion from duty disability to age and service |

We have conflicting information on Cynthia Flisnik.
The
2/18/2014 board meeting minutes say she retired
from the Fire Dept on 2/18/2014 at age 55 with 22
years and 6 months of service. However, the
following document says she was a Police lieutenant
who retired with a duty disability on 2/7/2014. |
